The Individual Outlet and Finish Drill Using the Goalrilla G Trainer

The Goalrilla G Trainer is an excellent tool to assist in the practice of the basketball outlet and finish drill. The basketball drill is used to simulate a steal and a fast break, or an outlet pass under the basketball goal. By placing the G Trainer near half-court and setting it at a steep angle, the practice player can use the Goalrilla G Trainer’s awesome flexibility to execute this drill. Using an overhand soccer-style pass, the player must bounce the basketball off of the G Trainer and run towards the basketball hoop as the rebounded ball heads for the basket. The goal of the drill is to catch the ball over the shoulder in time to execute a layup, power layup, dunk, or reverse layup.

Through practice and timing, the player can achieve an excellent rhythm that will simulate game conditions. Starting on the right side of the hoop, run the outlet and finish drill for thirty to sixty seconds before switching to the other side of the net. Working both sides of the Goalrilla basket goal will give the player a good sense for body control and timing under the net. Depending on how hard the original pass is, the practitioner will need to adjust their body on the fly as they would in a real game. Catching the ball over the shoulder improves balance and peripheral vision that will aid in all facets of basketball play.

Practicing the outlet and finish drill is an excellent way for an individual player to warm-up using the Goalrilla G Trainer. By switching sides ever minute or so, players can warm their muscles up and can ease themselves into game condition. Developing the hand-eye coordination necessary to properly execute the drill will improve the game time decision making processes as well. Timing is crucial in order to complete a proper pass under the goal and the Goalrilla G Trainer is the perfect tool for exacting that timing. The outlet lob is an essential part of any transition offense and practicing it is part of any good coach’s repertoire. The Goalrilla G Trainer allows an individual user the ability to train using this drill without the need of a partner or coach present.

The Goalrilla G Trainer allows a player to practice consistency in the original pass and stride timing as the ball is ricocheted from the face of the Trainer and lobbed over the players shoulder. By using the appropriate force in the original pass, the player can time their strides to coincide precisely with the location of the ball in order to catch and seamlessly transition to the basketball goal. If the ball is passed with too much force, it will be out of bounds before the player can reach the basket. If a ball is passed and is too short, it will force the player to stop early where a layup will turn into a short jumper that is susceptible to a block. By creating the proper stride rhythm, players will improve their timing under the basketball hoop, which will result in decreased reaction time and increased scoring.
